Why Choose Ribeye?
Ribeye steaks are favored for their:

Flavor: The rich marbling makes ribeye one of the juiciest and most flavorful steaks.
Tenderness: The muscle fibers are tender, and the fat adds to the luxurious texture.
Versatility: Ribeyes can be cooked in several ways, including grilling, pan-searing, and broiling.
This combination of tenderness and flavor makes ribeye the perfect steak for any occasion, from casual weeknight dinners to special celebrations.

Ingredients for the Perfect Ribeye Steak
Ribeye Steak: Select a well-marbled, fresh ribeye steak from your local butcher or grocery store. Choose a thickness of at least 1 inch for optimal results. Bone-in ribeyes tend to have a bit more flavor, but boneless ribeyes are easier to cook evenly.
Salt: A good kosher salt is ideal for seasoning the steak, as it helps to enhance the natural flavors.
Pepper: Freshly ground black pepper adds a nice touch of heat and flavor to the steak.
Olive Oil or Butter: For pan-searing or finishing the steak, you’ll need a high-quality olive oil or butter. Butter is often preferred for its rich, savory flavor.
Garlic: Fresh garlic cloves (or garlic powder) for added flavor, especially if you’re pan-searing the steak.
Fresh Herbs: Rosemary and thyme are classic herbs that pair wonderfully with ribeye. They can be used for basting the steak during the cooking process.
